Annex F

F.10 Clause 3

For each single-argument function f in <math.h> whose mathematical 
counterpart is symmetric (even), f(-x) is f(x) for all rounding modes and 
for all x in the (valid) domain of the function.

The font for 'f' and its argument is Courier Bold which is normally only 
reserved for an actual name, like say 'asinpi' and not its argument.

Compare this with .....

Annex G.

G.6.1 Clause 9.

If the function f is also either even, f(z) = f(-z), or odd, f(-z) = 
-f(z), then the specifications ...

The font here for both the function and the argument is Italic.

Should it be a consistent font?

Thanks - Damian
